16. Focusing the research Changes within the Architectural Profession The Effects of ICT on Architectural Practice  includeexclude & limit  architectAEC-field  building design urban planning  design process actionsdesign theory  practice environment[s]hypothetical politics  change description wishes, hopes, aspirations  true proved factsloose expectations

17. Focusing problem Changes within the Architectural Profession The Effects of ICT on Architectural Practice  [the whole AEC-discipline as a] research topic is too wide  too many new fields to be covered  change management  organizational sciences, design management  economy etc...  not just ICT but also several other [important] contexts  professional political interests  low result expectations

18. Changing Architectural Profession Research Objectives  to form a theoretical framework for ICT-based changes  to test the framework  to make the research results applicable in practice
